Cuz I'm vain, and the new 250R bodywork is sextacular.
Yep, nothing but warm and AHH IT BURNS US weather here Jin.
And yeah, I am actually coming from a 1200; 150hp and
600lbs... I'm ready for something new though. To give you an idea of the age, if she were your sister, the only thing I couldn't legally do to her is serve her alcohol.
I think the Versys looks funky-fresh, but I've had no less than five peeps tell me they think it looks like cancerous BUTT, and alas, I fear that may include perky breasted butterflies. Strom, visually, is basically a more busy looking Versys in that respect too, heh.
I think you guys are probably right that I do cruise too fast for the 250R, but it sure is a flickable looker and oh so frugal.
Gunna bow to the consensus that the Zuki would be prancing around singing "Anything you can do, I can do BETTER!" to the 650R, and so... *drum roll*
Should be swingin' by to pickup the SV650SF ABS in that dark gray w/ an M4 carbon slipon, fender eliminator, and additional lighting (since I drive 60% at night). 
Thank you everyone!!! I got a lot of ideas to research I hadn't thought of.
